    Well, you could always downshift or tap the handbrake to get the back end out if that's what you wanted to do.

    You can increase the hydros(or whatever they are in drive).

    Just find the front suspension Jbeam for the Grand Marshall, then search for hydros and increase the steering lock. Making a backup, and/or separate version to toggle it in-game would also be a good idea.

    In fullsize_suspension_F.jbeam, find "hydros" and change "factor":0.13 to a higher number. 0.18 seems to work well. A "drift" steering rack with those settings is coming in the "race" update (along with the full "drift missile" Grand Marshal config). I think it has something like 60 degrees of lock :D

    so what you saying is increase Factor not SteeringWheelLock...I will have to try a .30 lol

    Okay .30 didnt work

    whats the scaling factor on the 0.13 to 0.18 number how much does that increase the lock by?

    If you go too high it'll just break at max lock. 0.18 is about as high as the Grand Marshal will want to go.

    SteeringWheelLock is for the actual steering wheel, and also plugs into the steering input system. You can lower that value to get more responsive (faster) steering. The steering wheel will always turn at the same rate, but if it doesn't have to go as far to get to full lock, then the steering ratio is higher.

    I know the X360 controller the sticks on it have a 90 degree movement but that would be way too fast for me...I might drop it to 360 degrees but if I can get a G27 for Christmas I might be able to do a 900 degree setup..although I will have to rotate my desk...due to that I have been busy with my swiss army knife on it..
